Founded by artist Diego Osorio, Lobos 1707 makes tequila and mezcal that pair Mexican agave spirits with southern Spain’s sherry tradition. Every expression is finished in Pedro Ximénez sherry casks, reviving a family story that traces back to an ancestor who carried PX barrels from Spain to Mexico around 1707. The Miami-imported brand’s lineup includes award-winning bottles such as its Reposado and Extra Añejo.

Sanloco MezcalSanloco Mezcal makes artisanal mezcal in partnership with third-generation Maestro Mezcalero Rodolfo Juan Juárez at his single family-owned palenque in San Juan del Río, Oaxaca. Its Espadín reflects the Juárez family’s inherited craft, using agave selected from the Valles Centrales and river water from the surrounding mountains. Founded through a friendship formed in Manhattan, Sanloco pairs this multigenerational Oaxacan tradition with a mission to support the communities that produce the spirit.
